Sign of the times, family is starting to show up for the holidays, we are feeding 26 and have seven overnight guests all week. Last night was setup phone event. I just shook my head. None of our kids had phones till they were much older. Amazes me the dependency upon the electronic devices.

But how does that get into the intercooler? I’m just trying to wrap my mind around it

Not in the HX35, Cummins did use a water cooled turbo but that was only in generator and mining operations. Not in the dodge truck.

I have new theory after thinking on it.

I’d removed the intercooler boots prior to draining the block via the lower radiator hose. I popped radiator hose off and made a mess everywhere. I’m wondering if some coolant didn’t find its way into the intercooler that way.
What year truck? Also, if you spilled coolant into the intercooler it would likely siphon coolant into combustion, if it didn't hydrolock, it could be just fine and burning that coolant with no engine issues at all.
 
We need more rain, pond actually went dry, killed all the fish. Dam there were some fine Bass in there also!
 
Down to 17k without power, all hospitals restored so that's good, a much better number than 600k, this was a bad one considering we have 1.2 million customers, half w/o power is a lot
 
This falling wet stuff and the threat of it might just screw up The Turkey Night Grand Prix at Ventura Raceway Friday and Saturday nights. Chancce of rain sposed to hang out all week. :BangHead:
 
TT neighbor had hemlock hit his garage and was a direct hit on his generator. Crazy thing is I had stepped outside because had heard an earlier small branch hit the house and I heard the crashing down, wasn't sure if it was in neighbors property, turns out it was two neighbors over. They've had multiple contractors come out and bid on it

That's a nice counter top, wonder who put that in : )

99. I haven’t ran it since pulling the intercooler and radiator. Doing an engine swap. Original engine knocking and no oil pressure.

Hey!! I was wondering how things were

Thanks we're good here just picking up usual branches, don't think we lost a tree. Northern did better this storm, the four counties I support sustained much less damage overall than Seattle area and East of Seattle, they got whacked
 
Morning fellers and fellet. Cooler day here then snow for Thursday. Coffee is on and breakfast is on the stove.
 
I miss the old standard size pickup bed
:lol: Dad had about 20 4x4s 10 footers in the back of our all black '60 F100 short bed. Tailgate down, not tied in. Lumber yard to the house 7-8 miles maybe on a very rural road. One of them rattled out a little bit. We passed a CHP squad car parked at the side of the road. 2 minutes later we're lit up. Officer gets out of his car, tape measure in hand. Dad still wondering why we were stopped. "You don't have a red flag on your cargo. One of those boards is 3" too far out of the bed. License and registration please." "You can see our destination, it's right over there, the gray house." Scribble,scribble,scribble. Through the window comes the citation. Officer returns to his cruiser and leaves. Dad walks the the back of the truck and pushes the board back in place with one hand. :BangHead: :rolleyes:
 
Speaking of deer busters, this is my best friend’s daughter. Yesterday morning. This girl can shoot. When she was 10,565 yds with a 308 target rifle. Shes 22 now i think, and a linesman for Manitoba Hydro. She gets a deer almost every year.
